This smaller triple pocket holder is made with a 9×9″ piece of scrapbook paper with a final size of 4.5″ square and has a top loading pocket. If using a 12×12″ it will leave plenty of scraps for journal cards or other ephemera.

materials
What you’ll need:
1 12×12″ scrapbook paper cut to 8.5×11″
scoreboard or scoring tool
glue
scissors
Begin with your 8.5×11″ piece of paper, position at portrait format on your scoreboard and score at 4 1/4″. Turn your paper a quarter turn to landscape format and score at 5 1/2″. The scores are at the center point of each side. From the left side, cut along the scoreline to the center point. Fold, burnish and assembles as shown in the video tutorial.
To make the index card, measure your 3 1/2″x12″piece to fit the card length, mark with a pencil and cut. Be sure to include your glue margin, no need to adjust the width.
Use the remainder scraps to make a journal card and tags and use the 1″ scrap to make tabs and a tiny tag as shown in the video. The pocket can either be top load or side load. If you choose to make a notch position the notch where it will visible in the triangle space.
The final size is 4.25″ x 5.5″ which is a standard A2 size card. This triple pocket has a lot of storage for gift giving, happy mail or as an ephemera holder for in your journal. Can also hold a mini book.
Happy paper crafting!
